tyre

Tried searching on here and only found a few threads which doesn't seem to come to any agreement on it. As the front is much heavier than the rear should the fronts have more pressure or not? My friend is running 36PSI on the front and 32 on the rear in his coupe and that seems to make sense to...

Please could someone help with a bit of info on tyre pressures? I would like to know the recommended pressures for cars with the standard 215/55 tyres on 16" wheels. My car has non-standard tyres on 17" wheels and the pressures given in the fuel flap seem high (they are for the standard...

The other day i got in my car and the ESP button and Tyre rest button had fallen through the centre console which i though was a bit random as i havent used either of them for a while. Has anyone had this issue or know how to resolve it?? Is they a way to get the bit of plastic around...

Ok I'm getting fed up with the banging and crashing everytime I hit a tiny flaw in our oh so perfect roads, so with me about to be replacing 4 tyres, I'm thinking of changing the size. Does anyone have any experience with a 215/40/17, or a 205/45/17 over the standard 205/40? I was going to...

hi guys I just bought new tyres for my altea. I choose michelin primacy hp with speed rating "V" and now i'm wondering if speed rating is ok or I rather should pick "W". Also what about load index of theese tyres? I found load index 91->1356 pounds is that enough for heavy altea?

Hello, sisters diesal fr rear passengers tyre has worn on the inside, what would of caused that to of happened. New tyres put on today so doesnt want that to happen again, thanks

Right well basically im thinking of doing a boot install in my leon and though if I do an install theres no point having a spare in there as I cant get to it easily. Has anyone else removed their spare wheel and just carried a can of tyre sealer instead? many thanks

Need to replace my two tyres, narrowed down the choices of which tyre but I'm a little confused by the numbers after the 225/45/17. Currently I have Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 225/45/17 91Y, and some of these tyres I can only get my hands on are available in both 91Y and 94Y XL (Eagle F1 Assym)...

Have got a '55 1.9 tDi Stylance which comes with the bottle of sealant and mini-compressor, rather than a space-saver spare tyre, and was unlucky enough to get a puncture last night on my way home. Fortunately I was only a few hundred yards from home when I realised something wasn't right, and...

Hello all, I'm hoping your knowledge might help me here. I've got a 2005 Leon FR+ and it's got very odd tyre wear on the rear. The first set of rear tyres wore badly on the outside edge on the RHR, and inside edge on the LHR. This was so bad the edges were bald, and the remaining tread...

I've just recently replaced my summer tyres with my winter ones and I had a look at the summer tyres, to make sure that everything was ok (because I discovered a nail through one of my winter tyres just before i was about to put them on the car) and I've noticed that the tyres had worn out...

Hi I've got an Ibiza 1.9 TDI with cheap 195/55/R15 tyres. I want to get a set of winter tyres now and then in spring will get some summer tyres. I was thinking Winter: 195/55/15 Summer: 205/45/16 or maybe Winter: 205/45/16 Summer: 205/40/17 or Winter: 205/45/16 Summer...

Hi all, Sorry to be a newbie and come straight on with a problem, I only found the forum while trying to find an answer. I own a '57 Ibiza 1.9tdi FR, that is chewing tyres up on the front. The insides on both tyres are wearing at an alarming rate (a couple of mm in 3 months). This has...

Hi and thank you for letting me join your club, One of my problems is i recently had what i thought was a slow puncture,turns out to be catastrofic tyre damage the inner wall edge was split and the wire exposed and the other one on the front is not far off this? Is this normal or perhaps a...

Does anyone know of any tyre deals at the moment need a pair of 225/40/18 for my LCR. Looked at event-tyres and the Falken ZE912's are £150 a pair fitted which I think is a good price, was thinking of the FK452's but they aren't XL so can't put on the LCR.

Hey, Need to replace my tyres soon and I want to give it the stretched tyre look but I've never done it before. Usually I get 225/40/18, so what should I be looking for to get a safe stretch? Many thanks Dan

Has anyone running these tyres seen the pressure recommendations on the Vredestein website - 45psi on the front and 48psi on the rear for 17" wheel! Seems a tad-hard to me!
